very nice start, lovely rock!
what are you planning for stock?

Heymybigfish · 08-02-2007, 09:42 AM

i have no idea....like a clown, a gramma basslett, and a pearly jawfish....i still have more research to do to figure out how big these fish get and if they all get along...but i plan on hopefully doing mushrooms, hammer, frogspawn, and leather (tree) coral.

those 3 will. make sure that your gramma doesnt have any comical fish with it such as six-lines, and comical blennys... I had both in there with it and it hated them both. it looks like you have PC's so those corals will be fine as long as you dont add any SPS.

I say it looks good!

Heymybigfish · 08-02-2007, 10:41 AM

pc's? sps? whats that?

pc=power compact lights

sps=small polypy stone (hard coral)

Also be sure not to get the royal gramma and bicolor pseudochromis...they look very similar but the pseudo is much more aggressive.

What equipment are you running (as well as type of lighting)?

60lbs live rock
